A metropolis of endless beat,
Minsk's soul, ever sweet.

Independence Avenue Antics:

Independence Avenue, so grand and bright,
I joined the crowd, what a sight.
But then I tripped on a loose stone,
And tumbled down, all alone.
The locals laughed and helped me rise,
In Minsk, joy's no surprise.
From avenue's charm to city's light,
Independence Avenue's laughter's pure delight.

Gorky Park with views so grand,
I tried to hike, hat in hand.
But then I slipped on rocky trail,
And tumbled down without fail.

In Minsk, joy's no surprise.
From park's bright views to city's cheer,
Gorky Park's laughter's always near.

Minsk Arena Mischief:

Minsk Arena with sports so grand,
I took a tour, hat in hand.
But then I tripped on polished floor,
And tumbled down with quite a roar.
The tourists laughed and helped me rise,
In Minsk, joy's no surprise.
From arena's charm to city's cheer,
Minsk Arena's laughter's always near.
